In the 2023 Serie B matchup between FC Como and US Cremonese on October 8th, the match concluded with a major win for US Cremonese with a 3-1 difference in goals. Statistics indicate that FC Como was unable to translate their opportunities into netted goals, despite having numerical advantage for a significant part of the match.

In terms of goals, US Cremonese showed striking efficiency, capitalizing on the opportunities with 3 goals, two of which occurred in the first half of the game. The first goal was scored in the 16th minute, which set the tone for the rest of the game. Subsequent goals by US Cremonese were netted in the 32nd minute and 64th minute. FC Como only managed one goal in the 52nd minute in the second half, which was not enough to offset the deficit caused by Cremonese's early lead.

Interestingly, there was a distinct difference in the number of corner kicks by both teams. FC Como ended the match with 10 corner kicks, a possible indication of their dominance in the possession and their active style of play. Conversely, Cremonese had 6 corner kicks, thereby showing tactical efficiency given they converted fewer opportunities to a 3-1 victory.

US Cremonese recorded more fouls than FC Como, with a total of three yellow cards, resulting in one red card. This suggests that Como played a clean, disciplined game but perhaps lacked the aggressive, assertive style that Cremonese displayed. The red card could have offered FC Como a window to stage a comeback, but they were unable to capitalize on this numerical advantage.

Offside was a non-factor in this match, with both teams equally recording only one offside each. This speaks to the tight nature of the game, demonstrating well-drilled defenses and disciplined forwards from both sides.

In summary, US Cremonese's victory outlines the practical efficiency as compared to FC Como's technical dominance. Importantly, their victory highlights the role of focus and execution in football. Despite having fewer corners and a player sent off, they managed to take their opportunities and held off a potentially dominant FC Como. Conversely, FC Como will need to review their process for converting domination in play into tangible goals. Their statistical dominance in terms of possession (reflected in corner kicks) perhaps points to areas for tactical refinement.
